O.K.     I'm still new at all this cyber stuff.  I didn't think my first message posted.  So you guys get double the thanks! (well deserved!) Hope you all don't laugh at me to hard!

No, you're not  a geek!  New computers have to have the bugs worked out.

In case y'all don't remember:

Dagg's husband suffers and so because of their living near me, Margi turned me onto to them.  On the way to a car show last October, I met Robert and had coffee with him in Eureka,  Ca.      Wonderful guy.  

Robert, I am so glad something is working for you my friend, and I am so glad you decided to post mrs. Dagg.

Cootie - you were cracking me up.  I work in the accounting field and there are SO many geeks in my industry that they all look just as you described!   :o

Dagg - welcome to this great family.  Don't worry about the computer.  Heck I can't even do any of the underlining, glowing, or scrolling yet and I've been here for over a year!   ???  Maybe one day I'll figure it all out.

No laughing from this ch'er!

Pam,
I'll have you know that in the computer industry we prefer to be referred to as g33ks and my glasses are quite thin :P  I do NOT wear plaid or polyester (it melts if you stand too close to a flame...no don't ask how I know that), and as for the dippity do, my hair does that all by itself if I just don't wash it for a day, and my part just does it itself! LOL
